- One fine day in the middle of the night two dead men got up to fight the lame man caught him and the blind man shot him and the skinny man put him in his pocket.
A lie. There is a goose in my meadow
And she is of a large size
And the man that goes near her needs to be wise
She has feet in the middle
And she walks upon no one
She is far from her dwelling
And seldom at home.
A ship.As round as an apple as deep as a cup and all the kings horses could not pull it up.
A well. How many cows tails would top the sky.
One if it was long enough.
